Problem with hip replacement?!
Question: I had my hip replaced 1 year ago and now the joint seems to be loose. For the last few weeks it feels as though the joint wants to dislocate. Is there anyone here who has had the same issues and could give advice?

It could be the muscles are not holding all in place, I assume you have been keeping up the exercises. It could be, rare, but could you are rejecting the hip! Therefore call the Doc. Best of Luck
Call your orthopedic surgeon today, he may want to obtain xray films in the next day-week.
Get to ur hip doc ASAP!!!!!!!!!!! I also had a hip replacement last yr and u should have already gone back for a follow up, after 1 yr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My hip is FINE!!!!!!!!!!!!
